Creating a Personal Financial Plan

    SCENARIO: Imagine that you are in a position where you need to move – this could be because of a change in job, a need to modify your living arrangements, or something else. In addition to searching for different housing, you want to begin saving for a specific financial goal.   Create a budget for a financial plan using Microsoft Excel, ensuring that the information is organized, accurate, and complete. Identify a personal savings goal and a time frame for reaching it. Explain how your choice of housing will help you achieve your personal savings goal. Align your expenditures to support your goal. Reflect on how creating a step-by-step and organized approach to the assignment helps you adjust the financial priorities in your plan.
